Annual Tree Lighting

North School Park Eastman St. and Arlington Heights Rd.Arlington Heights, IL 60004

The Annual Tree Lighting Ceremony is held the Friday after Thanksgiving.

The Village of Arlington Heights installs and decorates an evergreen tree on the Park's fountain and lights up the streetscape trees. Our Park District craftsmen have created a number of display pieces over the years that carry out a children's toy theme.

Enjoy carols after the lighting ceremony

Stop by the Park District tent for complimentary 3-D glasses to help Brighten Up your Black Friday, and other goodies.
